Overview

Background & policy context:

CIVITAS POINTER is the Support Action to support cities and the EC with the monitoring (1) evaluation (2) of the whole CIVITAS Plus action.

Objectives:

Objectives of CIVITAS POINTER are:

  • Independent formal monitoring of the project deliverables and reports from the demonstration projects and provision of specialist and independent advice to the European Commission;
  • Independent overall cross-site evaluation of the measures taken by the CIVITAS Plus cities on different levels; this consists of 1) an impact evaluation, assessing achieved results in relation to the objectives and the base case (no measures) of CIVITAS Plus projects, and 2) a process evaluation, assessing achieved results and implementation processes of the CIVITAS Plus project measures in relation to the planned measures and implementation processes.
  • Development of clear European-level policy recommendations on the basis of validated city results;
  • Dissemination of best practices on monitoring and evaluation based upon the experiences gained in CIVITAS POINTER

Methodology:

The Work plan consists of 5 work packages:

  • WP1 Monitoring,
  • WP2 Evaluation,
  • WP3 Policy recommendations,
  • WP4 Dissemination and
  • WP0 Project management.

The monitoring and evaluation activities are strictly separated. The Consortium is built on the expertise and experience of the respective partners (seven partners from six different Member States including one from Eastern Europe) on evaluating and / or monitoring of complex, international projects that are related to clean urban transport.
